Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Maxine here! 🐾
I am so excited that you stopped by to listen to my story. As far as how I came to PPFT, I don't think my story is too different than any other fluffy butts story. My owners no longer wanted me and I needed a place to go so PPFT answered the call!
My owners said that I was a Finnish Laphund. From what I have heard this is not the most common breed, so I think that is pretty cool. I am about 14 months old now and weigh around 55lbs. As you can tell, I have some of the most awesome eyebrows around and am quite the cutie if I do say so myself.
I love to have fun and would consider myself an adventurous girl. I am someone who will always be up for doing something with my people. I would love to go to the kiddos sports games. I would love to go on walks. I would love to go hiking. Long story short, anything that involves my family is something that I would love to do! Don't mistake me for being someone who doesn't know how to settle though. Once we have had our day of fun, I love curling up with my foster family. I am always usually in the same room with them and very much enjoy spending quality time together. I think movie nights with the family are the best thing ever and would love getting to cuddle and spend time with both the kiddos and adults.
I do well with other dogs and enjoy playing with them. Now with that said, I have been burned in the past by other dogs so can sometimes be a little untrusting of them initially. Some of them I hit it off right away, and others I am not too sure about so think a meet and greet would be very helpful if my new family had other dogs. Once I trust the other dogs, I love playing chase, wrestling, and doing zoomies with them.
I am a talker and will let you know when I want something. Such as out of the kennel, for attention, or even to the other dogs during play. As far as my house manners go, I get a gold star! I am both potty and kennel trained. Given my personality, I think I would do well in an apartment setting as long as my new family had a good exercise plan in place for us.
Sooooooo....what do you think? Want to start our forever together? Because I do! I am really hoping you agree and will apply for me today! <3
